Round Three

Our first taste of Vietnam was the cheery chaos of Hanoi. Streets so busy with a tide of scooters, motorbikes, bicycles and the occasional car that it spills up on to the pavements at times. Played 'who can spot the most overladen motorbike', which Kim won, and we quickly mastered the art of crossing the road (walk slowly and let the traffic flow around you).
Tried to visit Uncle Ho, but he was 'on holiday' in Russia for his annual embalming make-over. Not sure what he'd make of the tourist tatt shops that line the route through his home complex?
Prices not as cheap here as we'd hoped, so budget is being stretched already. And LloydsTSB not only blocked my cashpoint card (again), but my Lloyds Mastercard got swallowed by an ATM. Thanks for making things easy guys!
